Chapter 44 Xiaohua’s Disdain for Mu Jinghan

Mu Xiwan watched with amusement as her grandpa went to the kitchen with Xiaohua. Just as she was about to go upstairs to her bedroom, she heard voices from the yard.

“I haven’t had anything happen all day, hahaha, looks like I’ll be able to get my ten thousand yuan back!”

Mu Xiwan had originally wanted to go upstairs, but when she heard Mu Jinghan’s loud voice outside, she slowly retracted her left foot that was about to step up. As soon as she turned around, she saw Mu Jinghan and the others pushing the door open and entering.

Mu Jinghan swaggered into the living room, looking smug. As soon as he entered, he saw Mu Xiwan standing by the stairs, his arrogance even higher. He shouted at the top of his lungs, “Mu Xiwan, you’re here, good! Saves me the trouble of looking for you. Quickly return my ten thousand yuan to me, hurry up! Your fortune-telling is completely inaccurate. I’ve been at school all day, and there wasn’t any blood disaster like you said!”

Grandpa Mu, who was in the kitchen helping Xiaohua get bread, saw Mu Jinghan yelling at Mu Xiwan and immediately scolded him angrily, “You brat, Xiwan is your elder sister, how dare you call her by her name? Where are your manners?”

Mu Jinghan, who was still very arrogant, immediately subdued his arrogance when he heard his grandpa’s scolding.

However, he quickly recovered and put on a wronged expression, saying, “Grandpa, Mu…she didn’t predict anything accurately. Nothing happened to me all day, no blood disaster at all!”

Grandpa Mu, hearing Mu Jinghan say this, also took a closer look at him. He saw that Mu Jinghan was indeed unharmed.

But Grandpa Mu was still on his granddaughter’s side. He said to Mu Jinghan, “You brat, what accurate or inaccurate? Why are you so fussy? You don’t have any masculine spirit! Go, go, go, quickly go do your homework. You’re going to take the college entrance exam next year. If you have the ability, then get a top score on the exam like your sister Xiwan!”

Mu Jinghan, hearing his grandpa say this, was a little amused. This favoritism was too much! And, this top score hurdle couldn’t be crossed, could it? He grumbled inwardly, his face full of displeasure.

Mu Xiwan, hearing her grandpa’s words, felt a warmth in her heart. Was this what it felt like to be protected by loved ones?

She smiled slightly at Grandpa Mu, then turned to Mu Jinghan and asked with a teasing smile, “I think you didn’t have a good day at school today?”

Mu Jinghan, hearing Mu Xiwan say this, thought about his encounter at school today, and his expression changed. He didn’t know what was wrong today, but everything at school was going wrong.

It was all small things, like during the exam, both of his pens ran out of ink, and when he went to the toilet, he slipped and bumped his forehead. Then, at lunch, he was accidentally bumped by a classmate, and his lunchbox fell on him…

He felt like all the bad luck from the past year had been concentrated on today, but these didn’t seem to count as a blood disaster. Sohe still argued, “What’s wrong with that? It’s just a few small accidents. It’s far from the blood disaster you mentioned!”

Chu Yunxi, standing beside them, saw this and coughed lightly. She had actually come to pick up Mu Jinghan specifically today. She wanted to see with her own eyes if Mu Xiwan really knew any arcane arts.

When she saw Mu Jinghan, who was completely fine, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Mu Xiwan’s arcane arts weren’t that good after all! After all, how good could she be if she was self-taught?

Chu Yunxi looked at Mu Xiwan and said softly, “Sister Xiwan, I’m not saying that it’s bad that you learn arcane arts, but it’s a new society now. We should believe in science, shouldn’t we?”

Mu Xiwan looked at this White Lotus Chu with amusement and said lightly, “You sound very nice, as if you don’t believe in arcane arts!”

Chu Yunxi, hearing Mu Xiwan’s words, was startled. She didn’t know if Mu Xiwan knew something or if she was deliberately saying this.

Her heart was a little uneasy, and she laughed awkwardly, “What are you talking about, Sister Xiwan? I don’t believe in arcane arts. I think those are all scams!”

Chu Yunxi said this, but her eyes flickered, not daring to look directly at Mu Xiwan’s eyes that seemed to be laughing but not laughing.

“That’s right, it’s completely a scam. There’s a reason why people say that fortune tellers are charlatans!”

Mu Jinghan, hearing Chu Yunxi’s words, followed suit.

Grandpa Mu, who was feeding Xiaohua bread, heard Mu Jinghan’s words and was about to glare and scold him, but was pulled by Mu Xiwan’s sleeve.

Grandpa Mu instantly understood his granddaughter’s meaning. He glared at Mu Jinghan, said nothing, and left the stage to Mu Xiwan.

Mu Xiwan raised her eyebrows and said lightly, “The day isn’t over yet, is it? And I observed that your disaster aura won’t last long and will soon come true. Just wait and see!”

Mu Jinghan, seeing Mu Xiwan still being stubborn, said to her with a confident tone, “Alright, if I don’t have a blood disaster before twelve o’clock tonight, you have to return my ten thousand yuan!”

Mu Xiwan, seeing Mu Jinghan still hung up on the ten thousand yuan, smiled slightly and said, “Alright! When the time comes, I will not only return your ten thousand yuan, but I will also give you an extra ten thousand yuan as compensation!”

Mu Jinghan, hearing Mu Xiwan say this, thought to himself, this new cousin is truly silly. From now on, I won’t touch anything dangerous. After dinner, I’ll just lie down in bed and it’s settled.

This is a sure win for me, and Mu Xiwan is even thinking about giving me an extra ten thousand yuan. Such a good thing, I’d be crazy to refuse.

“Alright, it’s a deal!” Mu Jinghan said happily to Mu Xiwan. From now on, I’ll just be honest and careful.

After finishing this matter, Mu Jinghan finally saw Xiaohua on his grandpa’s shoulder. He asked in surprise, “Grandpa, is this a new bird you bought? But didn’t Grandma tell you not to keep any? This bird is so beautiful!”

Mu Jinghan said this and wanted to reach out and touch Xiaohua. Who knew that Xiaohua didn’t like to be touched? The moment Mu Jinghan’s hand extended, it immediately flew towards Mu Xiwan and landed on her shoulder.

“This! It…what does it mean?”

Mu Jinghan stared blankly at Xiaohua, who was showing him a disgusted expression, and said in a daze.

Grandpa Mu, seeing Xiaohua fly away from his shoulder because of this brat, said angrily, “Look at you, even a bird dislikes you. Why don’t you hurry back to your room and study!”

Grandpa Mu blew his beard and glared at Mu Jinghan. This brat is so against Xiwan, it’s no wonder Xiaohua likes him!
